The French-language channel "Artieu" will present on January 15 a documentary film about the testimonies of those who lived in Germany after Hitler's appointment as a Reich adviser in the 1930s, French writer Joanna Lesin said. She says in her article in the French newspaper Liberation that the film can also be seen before the show, on the site "Lippi FR" French.
In 1939, three professors from Harvard University called attention to what German exiles described in their written testimony about their daily lives when they were in Germany, before and after January 30, 1933, or the date Hitler was appointed as an adviser.
The number of written certificates is 281, and it has been written in many languages before being circulated worldwide, from Rio de Janeiro through Shanghai to Paris.
Horrible novels
| " These testimonies include about 20,000 pages, including terrifying accounts of people who fled Hitler's dictatorship. These accounts are derived from the stories of men and women of all ages, including accounts of Jews, communists, Protestant and Catholic Christians, doctors, priests and workers " |
The writer adds that one of the doctors who worked in a Berlin sanatorium, who was mentioned in his novel as belonging to the Albert Einstein family, said that "late at night, I tried with trembling hands to record the events that remained firmly in my mind with letters of fire. "I wanted to write every moment as I lived, alone and tense, I wanted to write so that I would not scream and break the silence of the night."
Intensive hypnosis
The writer says that this documentary also talks about the reality of repression by Hitler, which would not have been possible without the complicity of many members of the German people in it. This is what historians of the Nazis, specifically Johan Shaboutou and Christian Ingra, have addressed in their latest book on Hitler's life.
It refers to some of Shaboteau's and Wangra's "how a society can be subjected to a very weak system by force: a city like Frankfurt or Main, with a population of about 1 million between 1936 and 1937, was set up by 120 police agents "This means that the establishment of the Nazi regime would not have been possible without the Nazis' genuine support for their social control."
According to the author, the written testimonies also spoke of the Germans who followed the Hitler regime, that is, those who followed this trend. She adds that the journalist Geraldine Schwarz refers to them in her wonderful book entitled "The Lost Memory", where she explained that "the position of the Nazis was based on the majority of the German people , Or rather they relied on the accumulations resulting from the absence of both thought and cowardice, which gradually contributed to creating the conditions necessary to commit the worst organized State crimes known to humanity. "
The documentary says "My Life in Germany Hitler" speaks of the masses who participated in the Nazi marches, where they looked like naively enchanted people. "When it's a beautiful day, we hear a lot of people say it's a wonderful day, Hitler's day," he said in a written testimony. In addition, the story of the six-year-old girl who came back from school and her parents asked her, "What good have you learned today?" And "spontaneous chanting" answers.
Philosophers and clerics
"We were in a state of intense hypnosis," the writer adds. According to these testimonies, Nazi supporters were not only members of the general public but also educated intellectuals such as philosophers, clergy and bankers, all of whom represented the blind and cowardly elite.
| " Some Protestant pastors held a deal with the regime, and this is the truth. They wanted to be alongside the victor, so they considered enemies of the regime enemies of the Church as well " |
"I was told that in some circles of the Protestant Church there is a strong sense of guilt," she says, "but I do not believe it." Today I met many of the people who claim to be Christians, They are martyrs, and a few of them repented of their support for Nazism, but that will not forgive them any of the above. "
"They wanted to be alongside the victor, so they considered the enemies of the regime enemies of the Church too, and were not afraid to include their support of Nazism within the pure Christian doctrine," the Protestant priest said. "He said.
